I know I torture myself looking on there all the time Sad But I think you're right, I sure I read something about there being no legal UK shipper or something. I will have to satisfy my cravings with the silver dragon pk pair I just bought off ebay :D

It is illegal to import into the UK without the necessary licences unless it's done through a transhipper which at the moment the UK doesn't have. The nearest transhipper to us is Germany, but you'd still have to have the licence to get them here. The USA, Australia and some other countries have them and that's how they import from Aquabid.

Some aquabid sellers will ship directly but you risk a very big fine and the fish being confiscated and destroyed if you are caught!!!

The last time I contact him was the beginning of last year and think it was shortly after that that he stopped. I've noticed on quite a few that his name still appears even though he's not doing it anymore.
